• Texas: no mandate, and no local one either. There is no Texas statute requiring harassment prevention training of private employers, and Texas Labor Code section 1.005, added by HB 2127 effective 1 September 2023, makes void any local ordinance regulating terms of employment beyond state or federal law. The one Austin ordinance that does bind private employers is City Code Title 5, Chapter 5-3, prohibiting discrimination in employment, which stands on the express authorization at Texas Labor Code section 21.151 permitting local ordinances that prohibit practices already unlawful under state or federal law. It is an enforcement ordinance, not a training mandate.
• New York: annual, for every employer, with no minimum size. New York Labor Law section 201-g requires interactive sexual harassment prevention training provided “to all employees on an annual basis”, plus adoption of a written prevention policy meeting or exceeding the state model. Section 201-g(2-a) requires the policy and the training information to be given in writing in English and in each employee’s identified primary language, at hiring and at every annual training. The state model policy was last updated August 2024. A single New York employee triggers all of it.
• New York City adds a second layer at 15. Local Law 96 of 2018 (NYC Administrative Code section 8-107(30)) requires annual interactive anti-sexual harassment training for employers with 15 or more employees, counting independent contractors, with new hires trained after 90 days where they work more than 80 hours in a calendar year, and training records including a signed acknowledgment retained at least three years.
• California: two hours and one hour, every two years, from five employees. Government Code section 12950.1 applies to any person regularly employing five or more persons, requiring at least two hours of classroom or other effective interactive training for supervisory employees and one hour for non-supervisory employees, once every two years, within six months of hire or of assuming a supervisory role. Seasonal and temporary employees hired for under six months must be trained within 30 calendar days or 100 hours worked, whichever comes first, and for temp-agency workers the temporary services employer trains, not the client. Content must include prevention of abusive conduct and harassment based on gender identity, gender expression and sexual orientation.

We are not attorneys, and training is not legal advice. A specific accommodation, discipline or termination decision belongs with employment counsel in the relevant state.

Exceptional HR Solutions has one physical location, in Melissa, Texas, and no Austin office, facilitators or venue. Programs are delivered remotely and live rather than pre-recorded, which suits distributed and multi-state employers well and a single-room all-hands less well – if you need a facilitator in your building for two days, we are not the right provider and will say so. What we build is a curriculum that satisfies the strictest applicable regime rather than the local one, so a single program discharges New York’s annual requirement, California’s two-hour supervisory requirement and New York City’s recordkeeping in one design.
